Do they have an ETA to the dock yet? Also, it's pretty ridiculous that they have to bus people out of Mobile. That said, a hotel room in NOLA is probably sounding pretty good to those people right now.

Brookley was a fricking airforce base. And the Bates has PLENTY of room, even for 20 737's
Plus they're fricking charter flights. Drive bus up to plane. Passengers walk up steps to plane. Plane takes off. Its not like they have to go to a ticket counter or something. Brookley has 10,000+ ft runway and shitpile of tarmac. And its 5 minutes from the cruise terminal.

I would have lost my shite by now if I were on this cruise. Theyd have had to call coast guard to come get me off this ship. And if I was stuck in Mobile Bay for the night after this debacle................Id call a charter boat or just fricking jump.

Too easy. Who would want to be back at their car in Houston within 3-4 hours of getting off the boat?

I can't think of anything I'd rather do after being stuck on a sewage infested ship for 5 days than climb on a bus for 2.5 hours with 40 other people who haven't bathed for 5 days.

I wouldn't wanna get on a bus or plane. I'd want a hotel to shower in, some clean clothes. And a decent meal before going anywhere.

are cruises really that fun? I've never been interested in them. I don't find it very fun to be stuck on a boat for 5 days and only going to hang on the islands for a couple hours each day. Plus I prefer all inclusive places for the unlimited drinks. Just had a friend come back from a cruise with a $2000 bar tab.

I think they're pretty lame unless you're going somewhere where cruising is really the more useful form of seeing stuff. Like Alaska, the Med, etc.
